I like Renegade Legion stuff, actually.

Well, if you use high-tech stuff and good troops, you
can do with a reinforced company (~20 vehicles). 
Using crap troops, you need at least a full batallion.

Uhh. . . 5k-7.5k points.  As for organization, that
depends on doctrine and equipment availible.

Batallion-sized.  I'd have to know more to be more
specific.  Hell, give me an idea of what you've got
and the background you're using and I can write a
whole corps-level MTOE to pick and choose from.

As for the question re: infantry, I'd recommend at
least a company's worth.  You don't have to use it all
in any given fight, but it makes the enemy plan for it
(just like real life).

And don't neglect artillery support, preferably at
least 6-8 guns worth.
